Haha for the price I willing to wait. Before this I was looking at Acer and Asus for their price. And getting a thinkpad for the same price is really good feeling.

But one thing about Lenovo is you need watch out their online pricing. They keep changing and make you feel like you save rm2K when actually it's probably less. But still the discount is good even though they play with their prices.

After using ThinkPad few years now, I dont think others laptop can fulfil me anymore.
Especially their soft touch keyboard like no others.

ts, if during promo time buy other series like legion also got 45% off?

Unless legion has AMD processor.
But not useful cause too heavy for me.
So far X395 is the best light weight laptop in 13.3 range

65W PD charger with UK plug head is pretty hard to be found though.

So far only UGREEN deliver it, at a great bargain price too.

Apple has a 87W one though IIRC.

Have xiaomi 90w and Anker 100w Pd

I hate 2 pins China/US charger head though, since PD charger itself is quite a bit bigger than say small phone charger, it’s legs can’t always have tight grip to travel adapters or so.

Native 3pins UK head is still my first priority, especially for Starbucks lepak purpose.
*
Hahah, I always prefer that 2 pin US / CN plug than the UK plug, usually UK plug much heavier than the US slim body.
So far no issue for me, cause I have the foldable multi plug adapter for UK 3 pin and use in MY/SG.

If wanna hangout in Starbucks, I will bring my ZMI PD powerbank as well.

For this Citibank 45% off, you can check out again next month. offer is last 3 days of the month. only until September 2019.

But Lenovo also have their own deals and flash sale, so better check their fb page or online website time to time for deals.
*
They no longer have Citibank card holder discount, this is such crazy deal.
Never had 45% before.
I had my 25% last year, the discount code is sharing from /k members.

Yes this is better performance than the I5 or I7-U CPU.

If you do compare from mobile workstation, the specs were comes with H CPU.

I bought this AMD for general use purpose such as entertainment.

That is fine for me, even tho single or double channel, as Long as cheaper price to get the laptop.

One thing delivery is long. But hope somehow can come earlier. Before I order I check other people say 8-10 days. Maybe cause sale, they take longer to ship out due to volume of orders.

Bro have u receive your mouse and bag?

I have 2 amd laptops now, both lenovo ideapads, one 5 years old (a8-6410), one bought in dec last year (r5 2500u).

Now I’m eyeing the ideapad s340 (nbplaza) for it’s slimmer profile and better battery life, but might just wait for ryzen2 next year.

Would love to get the ultrabook-ish asus vivobook now (techhypermart), but asus doesn’t offers the 15” version here cry.gif

The problem with amd laptops now is not the performance or heat. Battery life also no issue now, ryzen gen2 greatly improved over gen1.

The problem is, manufacturers putting low end features for most amd laptops, and positioning them as low cost alternatives to intel i3/celeron. Getting a decent high end one is hard, there’s always a trade off somewhere.

Eg. single channel ram, soldered dimms, 1w speakers, usb 3.0 gen1 ports, no usb c (seriously asus tuf???), usb c not supporting alternate mode (dp/hdmi), wifi ac 1x1, BT 4.1, 720p 15” screen (seriously lenovo L340???).

And poor cooling & heavy throttling:

Why didn’t consider for ThinkPad?
IdeaPad for more on entertainment purpose.
Asus laptop more on gaming.
Such as ThinkPad all comes with type C port or thunderbolt 3 port.
This is good for you to carry with PD adapter to reduces your weight.
Battery wise 2-3 years is consider very good d
